Abstract
If anyone ever doubted the importance of history, the last few years have proved them wrong. It is now fiercely contested how the past should be understood and represented, how it has been used, and how the understanding of the past is – or should be – used for building better societies. The entire construct of European history is challenged to be re-represented and re-understood through the lens of past colonial expansions and violence, as is therefore also the physical interpretation of past in public spaces and in museums.
